Me: Hey guys! You know how sometimes the ideas for stories comes at random times. That's what happened to me last night so I hope you liked what I came up with. I hope you enjoy this chapter! I don't own Naruto or the songs titles of the chapters.
Beep! Beep! Beep! I gently pushed the snooze button on my alarm clock and threw off my comforter already dressed in all black. I hopped out of bed grabbing my matching beanie from my nightstand. Going to my mirror I twisted my hair into a small bun before putting the beanie over it completely covering the pink. I grabbed my small bag for climbing out of my bedroom window to the dark village.
I hopped from building to building as quickly as I could so I couldn't be seen. I couldn't help but feel joy as the cold wind brushed my face. The joy was pushed away by the reminder of the reason why I was sneaking out so late.
It only took a minute for me to get to the window of the Hokage Tower that I unlocked earlier. I silently opened it after checking that no one was in the hallway. Once I closed it, I picked up the sound of footsteps heading my way.
I took a deep breath before I jumped up to the ceiling grabbing onto one of the exposed wooden pillars. I slid my body onto the top as I lowered my chakra, making it almost impossible to detect.
A few seconds later one of the guards came into sight holding up a candle lit lamp. I rolled my eyes as he walked past. They never think of looking up when they are on watch. I thought as I jumped down once he walked out of sight. I ran towards the directions the man came from, dodging only one more guard in the process, till I got the the records room.
I pulled out two bobby pins out of my pocket as I kneeled down. I knew that after the incident with Naruto, they would better their security with the important documents. I only learned about how to get through it when I was being taught by Tsunade.
I started to unlock the door with my bobby pins when...
"What are you doing Sakura?" A husky voice asked me with a mixture of venom and curiosity in his voice. I rolled my eyes still concentrating on the lock.
"Something that could get us in major trouble," I stated as I heard the click of the door. I stood up turning to my teammate who was leaning on the wall across from me. "Go home, Sasuke."
"No." I sighed pinching my nose. "Why are you sneaking into the Hokage's tower in the middle of the night?"
"I'll tell you if it makes you shut up." He nodded agreeing on the terms. "I'm checking a file on someone."
"Who?"
"No one you need to worry about."
"I need more information than that." He said narrowing his eyes more than they already were.
"That's all you are going to get, Uchiha." I hissed glaring at him.
"I'm coming with you." It was definitely more of a statement than a question. I rubbed my temples trying to calm the headache that was quickly rising. Does he really have to feel the need to keep an eye on me? Oh well, there's no point in arguing with him when he makes up his mind.
"Why are you so damn stubborn?" I whispered as he started walking towards me. He didn't seem to hear my question as he walked right past me opening the door I just unlocked. Before he could take a step inside I grabbed his obnoxiously high collar making him stop.
You have to be kidding me! The prodigy of the Leaf Village thinks it's that easy to break in?!
"Hn. Let go." He ordered. I rolled my eyes turning towards him not letting go of his shirt.
"If you step in there then you will be under a strong genjutsu that not even Kakashi could break. If you don't believe me then use your sharingan." He hesitated studying my face for any sign of deceit before turning his eyes to the red that use to haunt me years ago after he almost killed me. He turned to the room looking around for only a few seconds. And just like that his eyes turned back into the coal black they were moments ago.
"How did you know about all of this?" He asked.
"Information gathering is the key to any mission," I stated simply. I remembered learning that when I first took the Chunin exams. It took me forever to figure out what the purpose to the first exam was since I was focused on the problems most of the time. Sasuke didn't say anything more which told me that he bought what I told him. I walked right next to him doing some quick hand signals. "Kai!"
The barrier visibly shook before diminishing. I walked inside the, now boobytrap free, room. I went straight over to the filing cabinet where they keep all of their records of people from the Akatsuki to the amatur bandits. I looked over seeing Sasuke starting to walk over to me with his dark eyes narrowed.
"What are you doing? Go be the lookout!" I hissed quietly. He stopped in his tracks obviously frustrated that I was giving him of all people orders. Once again he didn't argue as he went back to the door. I looked back at the filing cabinet till I got to the third drawer from the bottom. Opening the squeaky cabinet as quietly as I could, I began searching for one particular file. I finally found it near the very back.
Case File: Orochimaru. Classified.
"They are going to notice if you steal a file." Sasuke stated. I shot him a glare as I stood up walking towards the small wooden desk only a few feet away.
"Who says I'm stealing it," I asked putting the file on the table as I grabbed a pen and paper. Once I opened the file I started writing down everything I could that was most recent. Where've people have seen him, who he talks to, anything that could help. It was only when I started hearing footsteps coming from the hallway that I realized I was out of time. I put the file back where it was supposed to be.
"Let's go."
"The footsteps are too close for us to leave without getting noticed." He nodded closing the door quickly. I looked up seeing two pillars parallel to each other that was the right amount of space for me. I hopped up and grabbed the two pillars. I slid into position while I saw Sasuke slid into the shadows.
Step. Step. Step.
Step. Step. Step.
My heart rate went up with every sound.
Step. Step. Step.
If we were caught then both of us would be on trial for planning treasonous acts against the Leaf. I really didn't feel like explaining why I needed to gather information on a man that I haven't met yet.
The door opened once again showing one of the guards looking in, being careful enough not to step inside. He looked around for a few seconds before leaving the room with the door shut behind him. I sighed in relief. LEtting go of the pillars I fell gracefully on my feet. I looked over to where Sasuke was.
"Can we go now," He simply asked walking out of the shadows. I nodded, putting the papers I copied my notes on in my bag.
"Let's go."
"Sakura-chan!" Naruto's voice boomed waking me up from my peaceful slumber. My headache from last night started to rise up once more. I barely got any sleep last night since it was taking me forever to get rid of Sasuke. So now, with Naruto screaming in my ear to wake me up, got me into a worse mood. I shot a quick death glare at the blonde before grabbing his shirt and flinging him back into the hallway. I realized after that I put a little too much force into the throw as he had a perfect cutout of himself in the wall. I couldn't care less though.
"Stay out of my room!" I yelled before slamming the door shut. I turned around hoping to go back to bed to get some more sleep with the one person who I didn't want to see was sitting on my bed looking as hot, for a twelve year old, as ever. The sunlight glistened on his black locks and vampire pale skin. If I didn't know Sasuke better I would say that he was a vampire in disguise.
"Hn." He grunted with a cocky smirk on his face. "Morning."
"I give you five seconds before you suffer the same fate as Naruto." He didn't move from his spot. In my mind I came up with three theories for that. One: he was doing that to piss me off (which was mission accomplished), two: he wanted to talk about last night, or three: it was both. "What do you want?"
"The papers from last night." He stated like it was the most obvious thing in the world. I walked over pushing him off my bed.
"Too late, Dipshit. I hid those right after you left last night. And I highly doubt that I need to tell you this, but I will just in case." I stepped on the weakest part on his stomach. "You better not tell anyone about last night." I gave one extra push on his stomach to make my point before getting off.
"Whatever," He said getting up. He walked towards the door not giving me a second glance. As for me, I climbed right back into my bed hearing the soft click of the door. "Just to let you know, if you are going to step on someone while wearing an oversized shirt, then you might want to wear a bra." My face went a little pink as I realized what I was wearing. My pajamas consist of a way oversized green shirt and basketball shorts. It hit me as he left that since my shirt was about four times as large as I was, he could have easily got a sneak peek of my chest.
Not wanting to let him know how embarrassed I was I just waved him off.
"It's not like you aren't going to see it one day. You never know when something like that may show up in a fight. And don't forget to close the door on your way out."
